Josh Arieh has just been eliminated from the tournament by Irishman Donnacha O'Dea.

Arieh got it in good holding {6-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

{7-Spades}

{8-Spades}

{8-Clubs}

with the board showing {5-Spades}

{5-Spades}

{A-Hearts}

{3-Spades}

{4-Hearts}

, though his made straight was vulnerable to the possibility of O'Dea's set of aces improving to a boat: {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{A-Clubs}

{K-?}

{Q-?}

.

After all of the chips went in, the dealer burned one and placed the river face-up on the table... it was the {5-Clubs}

{5-Clubs}

.

O'Dea raked in the pot with aces full, sending Arieh home shortly after the dinner break. The Irishman now sits with a healthy 78,000 in chips.
